  Time now for back to the basics and healthcare with balanced life chiropractic Doctor Harley,
• 0:04
  how you doing, Hey, John, I'm doing fantastic. Last week
• 0:07
  it was Valentine's Day when we were talking. It's the month of love,
• 0:10
  and today we're going to talk about falling and love with your health. Right.
• 0:14
  You know a lot of people, especially as we get older, we
• 0:16
  start having all these aches or pains and you know, dreading going to the
• 0:20
  doctor. Well, what if there's a way to fall back in love with
• 0:23
  your health. Yeah, and chiropractic can help you with that. And this
• 0:26
  is one of those things that there are probably some people listening who've never tried
• 0:29
  chiropractic, so to them, this is all a foreign language. But there's
• 0:33
  other people who maybe have tried chiropractic and maybe drifted away and they're doing something
• 0:37
  different. And there's others who probably have chiropractic as part of their plan every
• 0:41
  single day. So it's hard to talk to all of those people. But
• 0:44
  we're talking to all of those people. So let's kind of talk. First
• 0:47
  of all, the people who've never had chiropractic in their life. They have
• 0:49
  no idea what we're talking about, but they know what health is, why
• 0:53
  would chiropractic be something that maybe they should consider adding to their health plan.
• 0:58
  That's a great question. So majority people when they think of chiropractic, they're
• 1:02
  thinking of headaches, back pain, neck pain. You chiropractor's gonna set you
• 1:04
  on a table, your the table, drop that they're on, Twist you
• 1:07
  make your crack pop, which that's a lot of what the type of adjusting
• 1:11
  is. But chiropractice more than just aches and pains care but overall helping your
• 1:19
  body to heal better because it's functioning better and that healing better is going to
• 1:23
  lead to better health. And what it's really doing is helping our body communicate,
• 1:26
  you know, from one part to another part. And by doing that,
• 1:30
  that's what is really helping improve your health. Right right, you're learning.
• 1:34
  We've been doing this a little bit every Wednesday for a couple of years,
• 1:37
  and I'm like a junior chiropractor. Now, no, I'm not really
• 1:41
  that, but there's like three years of college. See there's there's these little
• 1:45
  things called degrees and you know whatnot But no, no, I again,
• 1:49
  the thing that I think is really cool for people who don't understanding about it,
• 1:53
  it's really just about helping your body communicate with itself, because our bodies
• 1:57
  are amazing, they are very complicated, amazing and yeah, at the end
• 2:01
  of the day, what chiropractic really is doing is we're helping how your nervous
• 2:05
  system is functioning. And now your nervous system is consisting your brain, spinal
• 2:07
  cord and all your nerves, and those nerves are going every muscle, cell,
• 2:10
  organ and tissue in our body. So it's kind of important things should
• 2:14
  be talking all the time, right, Well, our spine that is protecting
• 2:17
  that nervous system can that's what shifts and moves out of alignment, which we
• 2:22
  you know, we realize that we those aches and pains and then we go
• 2:24
  to the chiropractical to put it back into place. Well, not only is
• 2:28
  it relieving the aches and pains, but it's taking the pressure off the nerves
• 2:31
  from where the bones are out of alignment, and that's going to help speed
• 2:36
  up that communication, which is going to restore proper communication between the brain and
• 2:39
  where that message is going, which is going to lead to better health and
• 2:43
  healing. You know, if you ever played the game of telephone, oh
• 2:46
  yeah, you know, especially as a kid, you know how many people
• 2:47
  are in the room and by the time the message got around it's completely different.
• 2:52
  That's happening in our body too. Whenever those bones shift off alignment put
• 2:55
  pressure on the nerves, it's going to break up there, jumble up that
• 2:58
  communication line, and it's just going to get worse and worse and worse the
• 3:01
  farther out it goes. So then by the time that message gets from the
• 3:05
  brain to say you're pinky and you're having pinky pain or none as tangling,
• 3:08
  well that's because there's something interfering with that message. Absolutely. Now, if
• 3:13
  we talk to people who maybe have worked with the chiropractor in the past and
• 3:16
  they've drifted away and they're not doing it, some of those maybe it's because,
• 3:20
  like we talked originally, some chiropractors there's the pop it in the crack
• 3:23
  and the twisting, and there's some not so gentle chiropractors out there. So
• 3:25
  if that was the reason they go, I just don't like doing that.
• 3:29
  The thing I really like about balanced life chiropractic is that's not really how you
• 3:31
  guys do it here. There's so many different shapes, styles, techniques out
• 3:36
  there for chiropractic. You know, we're all trying to do that same thing,
• 3:38
  like I just talked about, but we have different ways of going about
• 3:42
  it now. The typical is more manual style, where they're twisting you and
• 3:46
  going to try to push things back in alignment. I use more neurologically based
• 3:49
  or instrument based, where we're using a small instrument that applies a very fast
• 3:54
  speed, precise, very preciset. I would say it's like a sniper rifle
• 3:58
  versus a shotgun. All that force is going into one area, so it's
• 4:02
  able to have a bigger impact, versus putting a lot of force over a
• 4:05
  large area is going to get spread out more. I love that and one
• 4:09
  of the other things. There's a lot of technology in the office as well,
• 4:12
  which I think is really cool because I've been going to chiropractors for twenty
• 4:15
  years. There are things that I've done in your office and I'd never seen
• 4:17
  before at other chiropractic offices. I'm like, what the heck is this thing?
• 4:20
  But it's all cool technology that helps you help me get better quicker.
• 4:25
  Just like all fields, you know, we're going to be constantly advancing,
• 4:28
  trying to figure out the best way, newest way to help treat our patients.
• 4:31
  So we use some technology to help us get a bigger picture of what's
• 4:33
  going on versus you're telling me you have pain. Here we're able to see
• 4:38
  where it's coming from, from a nerve level, from the muscles, from
• 4:42
  the skeletal level, so we're not just guessing. We're able to have a
• 4:45
  good picture of where your problems really are coming from. So wherever you're sitting
• 4:49
  right now in your health, the whole spectrum, all those things we talked
• 4:53
  about. If you want to fall in love with your health again in this
